MSF AUSTRALIA | SYRIA 2022

At the end of 2022, there were around 4.4 million people residing in northwest Syria, of whom roughly 2.8 million were internally displaced. Their already precarious living conditions continued to deteriorate due to the conflict and a worsening economic situation, and needs for humanitarian aid remained high with aid to the area having decreased. In Idlib governorate, MSF continued to run a specialised burns facility in Atmeh—the only one in the area. We also supported primary healthcare centres and ran mobile clinics to provide care, including sexual and reproductive healthcare, mental health support and prevention activities during the cholera outbreak.
